About Oddball:
Oddball is reimagining fruit snacking for the next generation - real ingredients, no compromise, and a whole lot of fun. Our first product is a spoonable fruit snack with a jiggly, nostalgic texture made from real fruit juices and purees, free from artificial ingredients, and now in 1,500 Target stores nationwide. We’re a small, fast-moving team building something big - and we’re looking for someone who wants to be part of it
The Role:This isn’t a coffee-and-spreadsheets internship. You’ll be in the field putting product into people’s hands, building the influencer program from the ground up, and helping us figure out how a brand actually breaks through. You’ll report directly to the Head of Brand & Commercial Strategy - meaning your work goes straight to decision-makers, and your impact is real!
What You’ll Actually Be Working On:You’ll own three things this summer.
- Influencer & Gifting
- We’re building our influencer and gifting program from scratch. You’ll build the list, own the outreach, and execute end-to-end - Community Building
- Develop grassroots initiatives that turn first-time buyers into repeat purchasers and advocates. Word of mouth is one of our sharpest tools and we need help wielding it - Sampling
- You’ll run events in NYC and the tri-state area yourself, and recruit and manage three Brand Ambassadors executing in other cities. We’ve been piloting sampling and it’s working. Now we need help scaling
- You’re outgoing and energized by real human connection
- You can talk to a stranger at a farmers market and build a tracker to follow up
- You’re organized enough to manage a gifting program and a small team of ambassadors at the same time
- You’re strategic, scrappy, and take ownership - you build things and see them through
- You’ll be located in NYC this summer and able to be in the field on weekends when needed
- You have genuine enthusiasm for brand building, CPG, and Food & Bev
- Part-time; ~3 days / week
- Hourly pay
- NYC-based; 1 day / week in office (Seaport, Manhattan)
- June through August, flexible on exact dates with the potential to extend
